Q&A

Q: If my coaches took the Concussion in Sports and Sudden Cardiac Arrest courses last year and they’re good for two years, do they need to take them again this year?

A: YES. They need to take all 4 courses to become Heads Up Football certified on a annual basis in order to activate the insurance of being Heads Up Football certified. Taking only two of the four courses in a given year will not qualify you as Heads Up Football certified and the additional insurance will not apply.
